How to customise amember user tab menu

I notice that in amember account area on this site you have customised usertab buttons, as highlighted in attached image.

How can we add such button to our own installations?

Specifically I would like to a but that says "Manage/buy Subscriptions" and another that says "Order books", both of which take the user to various signup forms for purchasing products.

Great that works fine.

The only thing that is strange is that when my custom button is "active" the button next to it highlighted Red.

The code added was
$event->getMenu()->addPage(
array(
'id' => 'membership',
'label' => 'Other Membership Fees',
'uri' => '/amember/signup/index/c/default',
'order' => 150
)

But the default "Add/renew" button is highlighted red when the new custom button is active?

I also want to achieve a similar thing on my site - I used the code above to successfully create the tab when the user signs in. Now I just need to create the content, however I want it to appear where all the user content appears (i.e. just under the tab menu), how can I acheive this, and where do I place my new file that I'm linking to (so that it is protected).

Many thanks for this great support forum.

Hi, I tried this code snippet and it works great...with one problem. The CSS that makes currently selected tabs red is not working for the new tab. For the other tabs, it's fine. For the new tab, it's not.

Does this have something to do with the uri being set in 'site.php'? It's a protected page, so instead of just 'amember/blah', it's like 'amember/content/p/id/1/'

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks.

Hi all,

If you're like me and all you wanted to do is change the text label inside one of the existing tabs and not create a custom tab or anything... (for example: in my case, all I wanted to do was change 'Main Page' so that it reads 'Dashboard' instead) - then I have the easiest and best solution for you...

Just go to this URL in your admin area http://yoursite.com/amember/admin-trans-global and then navigate to page 25, you'll see the entry for 'Main Page' which you can translate to 'Dashboard'.

You can change almost any text displayed to customers from here too so it's very useful for all sorts of simple text changes!

Do I place the site.php into /application/default/themes/custom ? or into a different folder? Because nothings appearing when placed in the custom folder

I understand you are all trying to add tabs, what about deleting them?

Check out this thread for how to remove a button.

What would i use to delete the add/renew subscription button? I tried this but it had no effect:
Am_Di::getInstance()->hook->add(Am_Event::USER_MENU, create_function('$event', "
\$event->getMenu()->removePage(\$event->getMenu()->findOneBy('id', 'signup'));"));

How can I edit the name of the SubUser Button? I can't find that on the

http://yoursite.com/amember/​

admin-trans-global ​

I'm getting blank screen with following error in the logs
PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function getMenu() on a non-object in /var/www/vhosts/****************/application/configs/site.php on line 6, referer: http://*********/*********/member

I would like to do the same as samskirrow I can get the tab to appear but nomatter where I put the file that it should open I get: Fatal error: Exception thrown without a stack frame in Unknown on line 0. I have tried a basic html file as well as the php file I really need. the script in the site.php is:

Am_Di::getInstance()->hook->add(Am_Event::USER_MENU, 'onUserMenu');
function onUserMenu(Am_Event $event)
{
$event->getMenu()->addPage(
array(
'id' => 'specialties',
'label' => 'Specialties',
'controller' => 'content',
'action' => 'specialties.php',
'params' => array('id' => 20),
'order' => 150
)
);
}
I tried to create the page via the admin but the page treats php code as text.
thanks

ok all working now, I forgot to add the

Am_Di::getInstance()->hook->add(Am_Event::USER_MENU, 'onUserMenu');
function onUserMenu(Am_Event $event)
{

bit at the top

I have this, which works great at renaming a tab:

Code:

//remove tabs
Am_Di::getInstance()->hook->add(Am_Event::USER_MENU, function (Am_Event $event) {
    $user = $event->getUser();
    $menu = $event->getMenu();

    if ($page = $menu->findOneById('helpdesk')) {
        $menu->removePage($page);
    }
});

//add tabs
Am_Di::getInstance()->hook->add(Am_Event::USER_MENU, 'onUserMenu');
function onUserMenu(Am_Event $event)
{ 
        $event->getMenu()->addPage(
            array(
                'id' => 'help',
                'label' => 'Tickets',
                'uri' => '/members/helpdesk/',
                'order' => 3
            )
        );
}

It's fairly easy to style the tab background color (including hover) with css. But, I'm struggling on how to alter the background color of tab when the tab is in active state (such as the color #88bc40).

Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

Thanks for any help.
